is Excellency SIR JOHN BOWRING, Knight, LL.D., Her Majesty's Plenipotentiary and Chief Superintendent itish Trade in China, &c., &c., has directed the following Circular, issued by Her Majesty's Acting Consul at on, to be published for general information.

By Order,

Superintendency of Trade, Victoria, Hongkong, 3d July, 1858.

CIRCULAR.

G. W. CAINE.

The Senior Naval Officer has been good enough to communicate to the undersigned, the substance of a Communication received from the al Commissioner Hwang this morning, in which, so far from disapproving of the proceedings of the Braves, he declines to interfere to them, and urges the evacuation of the City. He affects throughout entire ignorance of the existence of Negotiations to the North- and its general tone gives no room to expect anything but the most determined hostility.

The Community are probably as well informed as the undersigned of daily rumours and occurrences, and as competent to judge of the Potities of a general attack on the City. Keeping this in view, the undersigned advises no longer to delay any necessary preparations for a departure which may be required, it being evident that the Allied Forces in the occupation of the City and River cannot well be con- otherwise than in a state of War with the Provincial Government.
